COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Serving the community.

VCCC’s Community Outreach ministry looks to serve outside the church walls and take the Gospel into our local communities. To get involved and help out in any of these ministry opportunities, click “Volunteer to Serve.”

Reading in Schools

VC Elementary School (former lower elementary)

Do you have one hour a week to volunteer and make a difference in a young person’s life by helping them learn to be a better reader? This reading program for 3rd and 4th graders will start at the end of September with an organizational/training meeting at the school, and then begin the first week in October. High school students are welcome to apply.

Alternatives Women’s Center

Alternatives Women’s Center (AWC) is a non-profit, life-affirming Christian ministry providing guidance to men and women in crisis pregnancy situations. Serve the staff of AWC in Escondido by helping clean their facility once a month, which in turn helps them save valuable resources for their ministry.

Angel Tree Ministry

The Angel Tree ministry seeks to help connect children with their parents, who are in prison, through the delivery of Christmas gifts. You can get involved by delivering the gifts in the name of their prisoner-parent, and sharing the Gospel with the children.

Weekly Food Outreach

Each Tuesday morning, workers gather at the corner of Cole Grade and Valley Center roads with the hope of finding a job for the day. Show the love of Christ to these workers one morning a month by providing coffee, juice and a pre-made sack lunch, as well as prayer and encouragement.

The Salvation Army

The Salvation Army seeks ways to make a difference in local communities. You can help by being involved with their Thanksgiving dinner, ringing the bell for the Christmas Red Kettle Campaign, or giving out toys at the annual Christmas Toy Drive.

National Day of Prayer

The National Day of Prayer is an annual observance held on the first Thursday of May. Each year, VCCC hosts the local National Day of Prayer for Valley Center and you can be involved by volunteering in various ways.
